BIGGAR, SK – Registrations have officially opened for the 6th Annual Great Plains College Charity Golf Tournament presented by Biggar & District Credit Union. The tournament will take place June 22, 2018 at the Biggar Golf Club.
Teams of four will play 18 holes, Texas Scramble style. The first nine holes are Par 3, with hole-in-one prizes at each hole. Prizes will also be available for closest-to-the-pin and longest drive.
“We look forward to this event every year,” said Cindy Keith, program coordinator at the Great Plains College Biggar Program Centre. “It’s an opportunity to bring the community together for a fun afternoon of golf in support of Great Plains College.”
Registration for the tournament is $80 per person and includes a steak supper and a $35 charitable receipt; the early bird deadline is $75 for anyone who registers by May 30. Anyone interested in golfing in the tournament can register at Great Plains College Biggar Program Centre (701 Dominion St) or by calling 306-948-3363.

“We’re able to run this event for the sixth consecutive year thanks to the tremendous contributions from our local businesses, community and alumni,” Keith added. “We’re grateful for the ongoing support for our programs and students, and can’t wait to see everyone on June 22.”
